R and R32

[Pepe]

Went for a cruise through Kangaroo Valley today with a mate... so took some side by side pics. Each pic has a link that goes through to the full sized version.

the R looks like a real weapon next to the r32! wow!

[Pepe]

My mate was actually pretty surprised at just how much faster the R was. Blasted past him in an overtaking zone (all within the legal, posted speed limit of course) and it was like he was standing still.

Very nice.....they look great together.

Has the R32 had suspension work? It looks lower roof line to roof line than the R.

That is what i was thinking too?
Also, the rear of the .:R looks lower as the valence doesn't cut up into the rear bumper as much.

the R from the front looks complete weapon!
the back.the R32 looks fatter. The rear end of the R.....i dunno...just needs more. lower rear bar
both stunning cars

Looking at it closely, I think you're right about the "fatter" look... I put that down to the R having body coloured panels that go all the way down, whereas the R32 has the black the entire width of the bottom of the rear bar.

Gotta say, I think they both look absolutely fantastic.

Were those photos taken at the Briars Inn (between Bowral and Moss Vale) by any chance? I used to live in the Highlands a few years back; that place does a good steak!

Indeed it was! Nothing like a huge, cook-your-own steak on a Sunday arvo

Wow, never noticed the huge differences until they are put side by side

[Cookie28]

The R looks much more aggressive and ive never noticed the difference between RB and DBP until now... I think I prefer DBP myself, but both cars look FANTASTIC!!! Wish my parents had an R or R32 and I had an R32 (im about to get my P's )

[Flat-Mango]

Comparing the sounds would've been a treat
Choosing which sounds better though, well..... that's a bit harder.

[sabloke]

No, it isn't hard at all. R32's V6 sound is legendary There's no turbocharged four pot engine to match that.
